Comment (by mcandre):
I can compile ghci.c with MinGW. But it complains that I should have
compiled using a wrapper:
{{{
C:\Users\andrew\Desktop\ghci test>ghci.exe
GHCi, version 6.12.3: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 6.12.3 for i386-unknown-mingw32):
can't decompose ghc.exe path:
"C:\\Users\\andrew\\Desktop\\GHCITE~1\\ghc
.exe"
Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
}}}
In {{{ghci.c}}}, a comment says to compile with MinGW as follows:
{{{
gcc -o ghci.exe ghciwrap.c
}}}
Where is {{{ghciwrap.c}}}? It's not in the same directory as {{{ghci.c}}}.
Is the file created at compile time by make?
